The PC charts were last week dominated by the likes of Mass Effect 2, Battlefield Bad Company 2 and Star Trek Online. No surprises there. So we’ll instead focus our admiration on Tim Schafer’s Psychonauts instead.
The platformer was on sale for $US2 during this time, and made it to #8 on the Steam charts. I will now remind you that the Steam charts are determined on revenue, not units sold, so Psychonauts obviously sold a ton, spreading good will and cheer to those with the foresight to see what they’d been missing all this time.

I one dayed Psychonauts after wanting to play it for ages, I was pleasantly suprised by the game. Go buy it if you havn’t already, even if it’s not on sale anymore.
